====Filtering Assets====

You can filter the visible assets using the **More** menu in the [[selecting_assets|asset interface]].

You can open the asset interface by simply clicking on or searching for an asset.

The 'More' button is the button with the three dots to the right of your property values.

===Methods of Filtering===

You can choose to filter your assets by **type** or by **connection**.

When filtering by connection, you can choose to select assets that are **upstream**, **downstream** or **connected** (both upstream or downstream) from the selected one.

===Disabling Filters===

When a filter is enabled, a filter icon will appear in the top-right of the screen.

Clicking on that icon will cause a list of active filters to drop down from above.

Click on an active filter to remove it.

===Examples===

  * Select one item in the water filtration system.
  * On the asset interface, press the 'More' button.
  * Choose 'Filter By Type'

   * Choose an item that is on the water line.
   * On the asset interface, press the 'More' button.
   * Choose 'Connected To...'
   * Pick 'Water' (or any other relationship that has been configured).

All items will fade out, other than the assets that are connected by a water line.
